EVENING SERVICES.

DIR. Pentecost took for his text, Cor. 10.
'As having nothing and yet possessing all
all things Nothing is really useful unless
it supplies some real need. There are needs
which are associated with the animal nature
of mankind. They need food, clothing,
shelter. The intellectual nature has been
craving for knowledge The aesthetic ma
turc demands that the beautiful shall minister
unto it. The affectionate nature finds i need
that only the loves of home, family and
friends can supply. In addition to all these,
is that greater need of the spiritual nature,
which asserts itself in every life. We early
realize the fact of sin and the need of for
giveness. All stand face to face with sorrow
and are impressed with the great need of
comfort. Anything we cannot keep when
we make up our final account is not real
possession. The man who estimates his
wealth by millions when he comes to die
only really possesses what he has laid up in
the eternal world. Do not develop the ply
steal nature at the expense of the intellectual
and the spiritual. One has nothing unless
the spiritual nature and longing are satisfied
with God. Next Sunday evening DIR. Pene
cost intends to preach from the second part
of the text: Possessing all things

AFTERNOON SERVICE.

DIR. Pentecost took for his text the words
found in Rom. | ;l6: Il am not ashamed of
the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of
God unto salvation 10 every one that be-
lieyeth"
Not ashamed of the gospel in this verse
conveyed also the conviction that he should
not be disappointed in or by that gospel. The
gospel in which he gloried was the gospel of
prophecy. All the prophets gave witness to
the coming of Christ. The gospel is the
only revelation of God who is worthy of
the worship of man. The gospel only has
proved to be adapted to universal acceptance.
The gospel is perfectly adapted to all condi-
tons and classes to the rich and poor, the
high and lowly. 1t is the only religion that
offers complete compliment to all our
necessities. 1t is that which has opened up
fully the great question of Immortality.
Christianity alone has broken through the
grave and opened wide the gate into the flu
ture life. The gospel is the only proclama-
ton of religion to men, which puts it within
the reach of all, 1t is the gift of God to all
alike. The apostle was not ashamed of the
the gospel, because it was a power in the
world unto salvation; the very power of God.
This power is benificent, always Wherever
it is exercised, it is for the best good of hui
manity. And the gospel, with its beniticence
never grows old. 1t isl living power.

gestcd that he telegraph TO his father TO send

He acted upon this suggestion. When the
telegram reached the Mississippi office, the
operator had to send it several miles into the

The Bible.

1t is Il standing sarcasm against us that the
Bible is the one book which is more talked
about than read The sarcasm recoils upon
the heads of those who utter it when We re-
fleet that, in the ordinary sense Of the word,
the Bible cannot be read us we read other
books. Every line, every word, must be
thought about, talked about, prayed about.
Other books We read and fling aside, or, at
best, study with anguid interest. The Bible
is perpetual guide, philosopher and friend.
AT meeting Of the Bible Society recently,
Bishop MoorIiouse said that when any man
came to him and asked him to show That the
Bible contained the secret of human rrdcmp-
ton, he said TO him: "Try it," And ut
similar meeting, the Bishop of Exeter quoted
passage from Theodore Parker, testitying
to the unique position the Bible holds among
hooks, aud also from man who was not so
likely, perhaps, to have spoken in such
ttrms-Charles Dickens. In II letter to his
son Henry on going TO college, Dickens said:
al most strongly and atleclionately press
upon you the priceless value of the New
Testament ald the study of that book as The

A Wonderful Clock.

Henri Cunge, young French watchmak-
er, has invented mysterious clock, called by
It's inventor La Transparente. 1t is compos-
ed of thin C-shaped copper stand, which
supports two hollow glass balls, the lower
one, which is marked with the hours und
subdivisions for the half and quarter hours,
being considerably larger than the upper one
which is marked with the minutes. These
two balls rotate on steel pivots before fixed
indexes The minute index Is formed by an
arrow-shaped prolongation of the C-shaped
stand, which curves over the upper ball the
hour index is formed by copper figure,
which stands in front of the apparatus, and
which represents man holding lance In
hand The point of this lance Is on level
with the circle of figures. II is quite impos-
siblc for the casual observer, even after
careful study Of the model, to solve the eng
ma Of its working. The globes, as before
stated, are hollow, and as transparent as

Happiness rs II is In Youth and Ma
turity.

Isn't it a little queer that rs we grow from
youth to manhood objects change which
bring us pleasure? The amount of happi-
ness realized varies but little. There seems
to be certain amount of the article impant-
ed in us; no more no less. The boys sled
gives place to the richly caparisoned sleigh,
the toy house to the imposing residence, the
toy watch to real one, the toy boat to an
ocean yacht-bus the first yielded quite as
much pleasure as the last.
The Christmas gifts and pleasures of youth
brought as much happiness as houses and
lands, honors and fame do In after years
Our happiness is all relative, anyway. We
enjoy by comparison. The boys sled is big
enough to fill his mind The mans yacht is
merely toy, which has its use for time and
then ceases TO amuse. Christmas is a reality
TO the young-a definite pleasure point To
the full grown boys and girls il is an attempt
TO arouse the old enthusiasm, the belief In
Santa Claus, the enjoyment in gift-giving. 1t
comes and goes, and they try hard to persuade
themselves that they enjoyed 1t with all old

1t a large dog. The tenant was an old lady,
who liked to sit in particularly comforta-
Bile chair In the drawing room, but as the-dog
was also very fond of this chair, she frequent
ly found him in possession. Being rather
afraid of the dog, she did not care TO drive
him out, and therefore used to go to the
window and call Cats r. The dog would
then rush to the window and bark, and the
lady would take possession ofthe chair. One
day the dog entered the room and found the
old lady In possession of the chair. He
ran to the window and barked excitediy.
The lady got up to see what was the matter
and the dog instantly seated himself in the
chair.
